The realisation of tactile feedback in telemanipulation and VR requires so-called tactile displays. Actually there doesn´t exist any tactile display system that fulfills all of the requirements regarding the abilities of the tactile sense. Systems presented in literature don´t allow the implementation into data gloves as a reason of their large volume. This work summarises all of the requirements on tactile displays derived from the physiology of the human sense of touch. Those are for example the spacial resolution and the sensation threshold of tactile stimulations. Futher the state of the art with respect to tactile displays is shown. Different function principles are discussed and the technical data is compared with the requirements. A new approach for the development of tactile displays is shown. Therefor the function principle of electrostatic solid state actuators with elastic dielectrics and their abilities are described. Further an electromechanical model for uniaxial compression of an elastomeric body caused by coulombic forces is developed. This model respects the geometric nonlinearities due to large deformations and viscoelestic material properties. The model shows the static and dynamic operating behaviour and stability conditions during deformation of an actuator. Based on this model actuators for stimulation of human skin are dimensioned exemplarily. The needed dynamic material parameters of the used elastomer and the human tissue are determined by measurements. A new technology for automated fabrication of actuator stacks is described. Here the components of the elastomer are dosed, mixed and applied to a spincoater. After spincoating the elastomerfilm is heat cured. The elastomer film is masked and graphite powder is sprayed onto the film. The following elastomer film is spun directly upon the electrode. The thickness of the produced dielectric films is 20 µm at an electrode thickness of 5 µm. The electrodes remain conductive up to a biaxial strain of more than 25 %. With actuators built of 50 dielectric layers there are shown thickness strains of up to 17 % at an electric field strength of 90 V/µm, a pressure of 28 kPa and a maximum Frequency of 90 Hz. The new concept developed in this work allows realisation of very thin tactile displays with a high actuator density in batch processing. Because of their high structural flexibility elastomer actuators are suitable for integration into data gloves.
